Just a quick before and after. This desk belongs to a friend. It was in her room when she was little. Now she has a 5-year-old son. She wanted it repainted in a cowboy, western, Texas theme. I was free to do my thing.
Here it is. Oh, disregard the messy garage. When I create, things fly.
My husband’s office in Bridge City was a Texas theme so we had the stars and blocks and the horse hanger. A neighbor gave me the box and boots.

This blog is from Melanie Bacom. You can contact me at msbacom@comcast.net. My husband and I live outside of Houston, TX. I am a retired school teacher who loves to create. In the last 5 years I have learned to watercolor, tat, knit. I have made furniture, shell crosses, painted stained glass, and quillows. My house is full...I need an outlet.
I have 2 children. Barry is married to Emily and they live with our wonderful grandson August Everette Bacom in Austin, TX. Megan is married to Army Specialist Andy who is stationed in Oklahoma.

Thank you very much. I had a hard time getting started, but once the idea jelled in my head, I had fun.
